I have been reading a fine post about why we seem to have so many cock-ups in our national public life at The Real Blog, which is written by David Boyle. It also notes a book, reviewed here by Peter Wilby, in which I had a hand, providing the individual drawings for the cover.

My hat tipped to the authors of The Blunders of Our Governments, Anthony King and Ivor Crewe, and the good folk at Oneworld Publications who artfully bundled us together.

I look forward to working on the surely inevitable follow up!
